How we choose
Curated, not exhaustive.
Meeting our baseline standards makes a restaurant eligible for consideration. It does not guarantee inclusion.
Strong public reviews
Meaningful review volume and consistently strong scores across Google, Tripadvisor and other relevant platforms.
Food safety
Where public information is available, we consider the relevant inspection, grading or verification system used in that country or region.
Something worth seeking out
Regional specialities, standout dishes, local institutions and restaurants offering something beyond the ordinary.
Editorial judgement
Restaurants cannot pay to qualify. Any paid promotional upgrade is separate from our decision to select a restaurant.
Beyond the familiar
Chinese food is bigger than one menu.
Cantonese, Sichuan, Hunan, Xi'an and Hong Kong cooking, dim sum, hot pot, regional noodles and the best of the familiar classics all have a place here.
